Hi all

I'm not an Apple Mac user. So I haven't got a clue where to
start!

I have exchanged some video files with a friend who has
a G4. I use manily Video Lan \ BSplayer Pro and Media player
Classic.

Can you advise me what video player packages would be the
Apple Mac equivalent of the above?

The files are mainly divx ones, avi, mpgs and wmv's.
When he uses QuickTime he said that some of avi files work
but not all.

Cheers.

Yeah, VLC, Mplayer 2 and Windows Media Player are the ones I use. Plays almost everything.

So the ones you mention are available for my friend to use
on his Apple Mac G4?
